In this episode, I open up about why I created this podcast in the first place: to be what I desperately needed as a new mum. I wanted a space where the messy, uncomfortable, overwhelming parts of motherhood were spoken about honestly, so that any mum feeling lost, chaotic, or “not enough” would know it’s not her, it’s the season she’s in.

I talk about the damage of highlight-reel culture, especially in postpartum. Seeing influencers bounce back with abs at six weeks made me believe I should be able to do the same, without understanding the reality of having a baby in my arms 24/7, a mind in turmoil, a house in chaos, and zero capacity for self-care.

So is relatable mum content the answer? Or are we creating new and lower standards for women?
